Thoughts and Details on Coursework¶

What were ECE2T2s' favourite courses? What courses did they take? Did they overload courses?

Which term would you consider was the most difficult?¶

For each semester that ECE2T2s perceived as the hardest semester, how many of them actually scored an average grade lower than their average grade across all University semesters?¶

21 ECE2T2s believed the second year second semester was the hardest semester, yet in second year second semester, 13 of them scored higher than their average grade mark across all University semesters (isLower=False). We can see that in second year first semester, ECE2T2's perceived difficulty of the semester matched with their grades in that semester, as all 12 respondents who answered second year first semester was the hardest semester scored lower that semester than their average grade.

Maybe the reason why a large number of people thought second year second semester was the 'hardest' semester, was because they had to put in extra effort to rebound their GPA from second year first semester, thus ending up with better grades than average? Maybe they found the increased load of project work to be meddlesome, but not complex and still able to score high grades? Just speculation :))

Which term would you consider was the most easy?¶

We chillin' in 4th Year ;)

For each semester that ECE2T2s perceived as the easiest semester, how many of them actually scored an average grade higher than their average grade across all University semesters?¶

Man some of y'all capping about a semester being easy since your average grades for that semester are lower than your University averages (one of them being me for sure LOL). Kinda interesting that the 4 people who scored a lower grade than their average grade perceived fourth-year first semester and first-year first semester were the easiest. Maybe some of us tend to perceive things as easy in our first and final semesters because we don't give a shit about grades anymore... So even if we get lower than average grades we still think the semesters are easy because... When nothing matters, why would anything be hard? :)))
